Supernova Fallback: A Possible Site for the r-Process
Chris L. Fryer, Falk Herwig, Aimee Hungerford +1
The conditions for the leading r-process site candidate, neutrino-driven winds, can not be reproduced self-consistently in current supernova models. For that reason, we investigate…
Explosive Nucleosynthesis from GRB and Hypernova Progenitors: Direct Collapse versus Fallback
Christopher L. Fryer, Patrick A. Young, Aimee L. Hungerford
The collapsar engine behind long-duration gamma-ray bursts extracts the energy released from the rapid accretion of a collapsing star onto a stellar-massed black hole. In a collaps…
Optical and Near-Infrared Observations of the Peculiar Type Ia Supernova 1999ac
Mark M. Phillips, Kevin Krisciunas, Nicholas B. Suntzeff +29
We present 39 nights of optical photometry, 34 nights of infrared photometry, and 4 nights of optical spectroscopy of the Type Ia SN 1999ac. This supernova was discovered two weeks…
